Anyone know how to fix this PS3 problem?

In other words, if you were an idiot and got the Slim version, you're fine. If you had the intelligence to buy a larger model PS3 (like me), you're hosed.

oh, see my friend got that since his broke and it was christmas time. I got mine basically a month after PS3 came out, but now its working just fine. i was told about this screw-up by an email representative person, but it is now done with and i can play. glad i didnt have a major problem!

They've acknowledged it. But the moral of the story is, if you had an Xbox you'd be playing right now.

i do actually (which came back about a week or 2 ago) but i can only play it certain days for certain amounts of time so sunday night is not one of those.
